Happy Holidays From The Cult!

Happy Holidays from ChuckPalahniuk.net!

On behalf of ChuckPalahniuk.net, we want to wish you all a Happy Holidays!  We hope that you're with family and friends this season, and that you get to relax and enjoy yourself.  I've got a sister who's moving to San Francisco, so most my time spent in New York this week has been helping her pack and load moving trucks.  But I'm finally relaxing on the couch now, with my laptop, staring at a lit up Christmas tree and watching Modern Marvels on the History Channel.

Let me take a moment to let you all in on some buzz in 2009 to get you all excited and curious.  We have some exciting news.  News so big, that Chuck is actually going to be revealing them on the site himself, on New Year's Day.  So definitely make sure you're all logged into The Cult on January 1st.  I can also tell you that big improvements are coming to the site.  Probably not till around February.  But these are changes we think you will all like and appreciate.

So until then, stay tuned.  Just don't speculate too much.  We want this to be a surprise, after all. Wink

This is like that episode of the Brady Bunch where Marsha promises to get Davy Jones to play at her high school dance. Here's hoping our Davy Jones shows up today.

Hey guys,

Okay, as of 5 minutes ago, I just heard from Chuck.  He wants to post this news on the site directly, and had been thinking of how he'll frame it all.  He said the post will show up before end of day today.

So stay tuned...

Well, nobody else has posted for some time, so I figured it my wine-stained duty to do so. Now, if I just had something to say. Oh, I know. Tick-tock, tick-tock. It is 8:05 Central Time. My prognosis is that it ain't happenin' tonight, whatever the hell it is. Jack Daniel's, anyone?

Interesting facts in the meantime: Jack Palance's real last name was Palahniuk. (sometimes spelled Palanyuk )http://www.s9.com/Biography/Walter-Palaniukor-Volodymyr-Palahniuk

I wonder if they're distantly related?

Also, loosely translated, Palahniuk means Godot.

Bateman,

Send me your phone number, I'll call and wake you up when it happens. I'm an insomniac. Smile Yes, of course that's a ploy to get your number, I still dream about that video of you reading your work, but that's a post for a whole other chat room!

Am I the only one here who thinks that this news anticipation is something out of Chuck's next novel? All the fanboys and girls gluing themselves to a monitor and a cult hero dropping crumbs toying with them to see who implodes first? *covering head with arms* Don't pillory me! I was just thinkin'!

Chuck is an author. The man crafts with great care whatever he writes.
Give him time, hehe...

If he can write a book a year, he can write a forum post in nine days.

Ahhh, perhaps, I'll wake up to the amazing-ness. If not, there's all the time in the world for the awesome news. Goodnight/morning, all.
